@AP I liked her because she could communicate well but this shows that just being a policy wonk doesn't mean you can execute. This is the difference between a Mamdani who is serious about building new housing and another progressive talking head that gets nothing done.
@FinanceLancelot The genuine reason this won't play out is because boomers own too many assets to allow any kind of decline in values a rising dollar would bring. It would be amazing for the average American if it did happen though.
@typesfast I have a lot of respect for Lisbon copying things from other cities and making it their own. It's not just the bridge and cable cars from SF, they have their own Christ the Redeemer statue and a public elevator in the middle of the city like Stockholm.
@gregcello The American Rowhome is the obvious winner here. Not just for aesthetics but also for how sustainably dense this type of housing is and for the walkable environment it promotes.
